Why is this called a review?

1. You didn't actually state YOUR opinion of the adapter, just gave some information that anyone could find on the internet easily.

2. You didn't show any footage with any lenses to demonstrate what the adapter can achieve.

3. You didn't even HAVE the adapter! Just a picture of it on a clipboard! How can you review something if you don't even have it?

I'm getting so sick and tired of people who throw random info about a product into a video and call it a review!

Thank you so much for this video. I've been searching for information on how this thing works for months. I work at a photo studio with the complete EOS L series lens set, and we're moving into video. Needless to say, we wanted to use our expensive lenses (most around $2000) if we could. I'm glad you gave me the answers I needed to take the step and try it out.

So is it the lens' "zooming capability" that is magnified seven times? Or is it the "minimal focal length" that is increased? in other words would it still be possible to get wide shots

[nublackmusic]

Manual zoom is a pain and what about auto focus. If it does not flip the image it would be a much cheaper solution than a letus or other third party vibrating adapter.
